Quick CRT, I don't have a sandbox, overhaul, or whatever, I just happened to notice something while working on an actual big CRT/overhaul/sandbox, and thought it should be tweaked to be more accurate.
DCAU Superman, profile here.

He is 5-C due to this calc.
While at a glance this looks fine and checks outit's actually an extreme low-end, as the bomb went off inside the sun and the shockwave still traveled millions of kilometers, obviously the sun has far harsher atmospheric conditions.
But that blastwave isn't the whole of the feat nor the whole context.
Here are a few relevant clips, the feat, and the aftermath.
Essentially Emerald Empress drained Oa (Green Lantern world) of its energy into a device, and planned to have that device detonate, taking out the sun, killing earth (a place that spawned the concept of super heroes), and changing the future which she originates from to where heroes mostly don't exist.
And she attempts exactly that, the bomb goes off while Supes is basically grasping it, and the Sun's GBE is undone by the alleged 5-C explosion.
This results in Star Boy, who has cosmic and gravity powers to sacrifice himself to essentially pull the sun back together, rebinding its GBE or whatever.
There's more explanations and suchbut i deleted the movie already so best ya get is those 3 clips, which I feel is sufficient.
As such I propose Superman's 5-C+ be rectified into a baseline 4-C, as the 5-C+ calc is actually a feat of overcoming the GBE of the sun.
And Supes facetanked it as was basically touching it, and was fine besides getting knocked away. Do note this movie has Superman get gored by a HF Blade and features some moderately bloody imagery, yet this didn't even give him a bloody lip.

Superman (DCAU)
Like his comic counterpart, Superman's true identity is Kal-El, the last surviving Kryptonian. After being taken in by the Kents and (consequently taking the name Clark Kent), he discovered his powers in his teen years when trying to save a young girl from an exploding trailer, he comes to terms...
